Dinky Diner Reviews
Wow. What an experience or lack of one, should I say. Wait to be seated - check. Led to an apparent table, no greeting, no welcome - check. Menus & silverware tossed on a table, must mean sit here customer - check. Review the menu and wait to be greeted and/or order taken - check. Observe grumpy server, observe other patrons appearing frustrated - check. Leave without ever being greeted or waited on - check. Lots of attitude & no service - check. Obviously not like it...read full review
Everything - the service, the food, the atmosphere! Loved it all!
Went twice and that's enough. To be seated took forever and many tables and booths open. I asked about rootbeer on tap, the owner said yes in a frosted mug. Well I got it in a glass with ice. I told him to talk to the owner about a frosted mug. 2nd time around it was in a small mug with ice. Checking out was a TOTAL nightmare!!! This man shouldn't be seating people nor take peoples money..

Dinky Diner is a beloved local spot in Rhinelander, known for its amazing atmosphere and exceptional service. The owners are super nice, and the food is always prepared fresh and hot. Regulars abound, and the diner is highly recommended for its fantastic breakfast, including the Philly breakfast bowl, and gluten-free options. The community eagerly awaits its return after a setback.
Customers have praised the diner for its Fish Fry Friday, offering numerous special fish options. The décor is very pleasant, and the staff is personable. The three-piece fried haddock meal is a favorite, featuring generous portions with lightly breaded fish that is perfectly fried. The house-made tartar sauce complements the dish well. Additionally, side options like onion rings and clam chowder are popular, with the rings often seen as a separate order due to their generous portion size.
Overall, Dinky Diner is a great find with delicious meals, friendly service, and a welcoming atmosphere that keeps customers coming back.
